Hey Everyone, 

 

So I have an Android stick running Android Marshmallow. Is there a way to force update it to Nought without the flashing. 

 

Thanks in advance

I don't believe it does. At least it wont even let me attempt an update

I'm pretty sure you'll need to reflash.

 

Be careful what you flash it with though, not all hardware supports nougat and flashing a rom that was made for another device is one of the quickest ways to brick your stuff.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨
